Many always compare their lives with others. Good or bad. They just love comparison so much.If there’s one thing those people love doing other than pin-pointing and gossiping, comparing is another " past-time" they enjoy doing..

Is it our competitive society that " nurtures " this absurd behaviour? Or is it by nature practice? Well, seriously, I really can’t put a finger on that.

I’ve been to one of my paternal cousin’s wedding which was held at a hotel in Sentosa. Often, events like this one, would be the " gathering-ground " for those people. It would really be a bummer if you happen to be having nine of those sharing a table with you.(*10 in a table) Frequent, there’s only one ass sharing the table with you. For my case, one is enough.. She is a lot worse than all those you’ve met and knew. Venomous, bossy and always poke her nose into every conversation that has nothing to do with her. Gawd ~ Well, this was one of the best wedding I’ve been to. Why? I actually have had a participation credit !! Lol. It’s an " honor " to be able to put those ass in a frown and crossed their arms and for a moment or two, fuming in silence. HAHAHAHAHA.. Nothing is as good as that ! haha..

I was just advising my uncle’s heavy smoking and bad drinking habits. She just have to poke her nose in. Say I was disrespectful and my uncle shouldn’t have doted me, shouldn’t participate in my upbringing when I was young. Wth?! SHOULD I JUST WATCH HIM SMOKE, WATCH HIM DRINK.. TILL SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS AND SHE PIN-POINTS AT ME SAYING " if you care, you would have stopped him from all these torturous habits. "

Care, is to stop the one you love from torturing himself. To change his habits. To help him in the process.

Call it disrespectful. Whatever. Haha. She is so not worth respecting.

The no.1 listed in billboard you wouldn’t wanted to mess with.

It might not be a divine meal, but surely was an entertaining, rollercoaster ride, one of those nights you can put your arms high and scream.. lol.

P.S: For those people who has serious bad drinking and heavy smoking, please stop giving yourself excuses for not quitting. It’s never a bad time to quit.

What I did was just shooting back at her till she’s seething in her crossed arms, shaking in anger. I love that sight. Perhaps in the past, I might be in fear. BUT I HAVE GONE THRU THAT METAMORPHISIS.

Deep cuts http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/11/deep-cuts/ http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/11/deep-cuts/#comments Fri, 09 Nov 2007 17:46:08 +0000 dawn-hazelnuts http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/11/deep-cuts/ Deep Cuts

I thought being young has an advantage to everything. I guess not.

I flunk my o’s, due to my injury. Got into a local private business school. Picked things up quickly. And thought I will not see another "Fail" in the report card. I failed the subject I was confident in.

Since secondary school, I picked up maths concept quickly, but somehow when there’s a twist to the question, I got stuck. And unable to do well. I can never undo the knots.

The day before the exam day for quantitative method, my brother and my bf taught me. The pressure of not able to undo the knots just got to me. Slowly, I found myself drenched in tears, sweat and mucus. Ok, that’s gross. lol.

I’m a coward. I tried to runaway from my exam. When I reached the polyclinic, then I had stomach aches. The doctor diagnosed me having food poisoning. Such coincidence. Should I even be glad? Ha, I do not know.

I ran away again. The supplementary paper for the subject I thought I’m good at. Ha. I’m really a coward. Keep on running away. I ran away from NAFA. ‘Cos I couldn’t stand myself not being as talented as the others.

I hated myself.

Someone told me before, I was irresponsible and think that things is simple.
Yea. To me, things is just either A, or B not A or B then it’ll just be C. Things just wouldn’t shape into a D or E. Oh c’mon.. LIfe is like an equation. Just know the right set of formulas and apply them respectively. How hard can it be? Applied the wrong one? You’ve learnt a lesson, then try the next formula. Just keep on trying till you get it right.

But how many chances are to give before you even got them right in time?

I recently been to an interview. It’s a big respectable firm in Singapore.
I got trashed badly. Reality hit me real bad. You just hoped you died there, than living through it. Got humiliated. But, I’ve learnt big from there. Despite it hurts.

People just love to be picky. They sculptured a certain expectation. You happen to qualify them. They started digging the dirt and throw them at ya. Right at your face.
My dirt happens to be my cowardice and my O’s. I thought by holding at least half a Diploma and with an experience of servicing customers, it’ll be an advantage. DEH .. WRONG.

So, I’ve made up my mind. I decided to resit my O’s. No more being a coward.

Hopefully, this would turn out well…

I won’t bury my mistakes under the carpet. Having to learn my mistakes, and improved not just the situation but also, on the whole, improved myself as a person, is a satisfaction growth of maturity.

By posting this here, I’ve already taken my first step.

Have you?

Happy yet…. http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/10/happy-yet/ http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/10/happy-yet/#comments Fri, 19 Oct 2007 06:15:16 +0000 dawn-hazelnuts http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/10/happy-yet/ After that fight with ‘him’, the way he treated me improved, and even tries to give me more security; (which he’s very poor at doing, previously) amazes me a lot by doing things behind my knowledge to surprise me.

Perhaps all these good changes, bring worries. Maybe some might say I’m paranoid, and should continue to enjoy these good changes before it fades away. I know it’ll soon be expired… and it’s slowly taking its effect.

*Taking a deep breath. Maybe I should just stop worrying.. Perhaps he’ll improve instead… He’s getting better… and I’m happy and satisfied with things.

Just hope I’m really being paranoid. I’m not suspecting he’s cheated on me.. Just.. scared that he’ll bring about an abrupt change - a bad one.
Perhaps, I should hide my emotions and worries under the carpet and pretend that it never occurred and continue with things?

Nonono.. That’s not me.. I should confront. I should ask… What can he tell me?
Maybe I should lessen my worrying. ( Lower security level) And place more trust in him. Yea..

Hoping that this gnawing feeling will fade away quickly..

Worried Freak

COMMENTS ONLY. DONT TAKE IT TOO PERSONALLY http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/01/comments-only-dont-take-it-too-personally/ http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/01/comments-only-dont-take-it-too-personally/#comments Wed, 24 Jan 2007 09:13:05 +0000 dawn-hazelnuts http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2007/01/comments-only-dont-take-it-too-personally/ My Comments On The Reality TVshows on Local channels.

For those who glued their eyes to the rectangular box, you odd to realise the number of reality shows on tv right? There’s Campus Superstar, Superstar, etc.

Ask yourself this : Have you ever laugh at those who sings "uniquely "?

I’m sure i hear a ‘Yes’ for an answer. Alright, ever thought about this.. When you sing along with the original artists, do you know how "well" you sing?

Some people does not know how "well" they sing, so as they gotten themselves an entry form, realization started to kick in. Even if they knew they were bad, they still went for it. They wanted to know how to improve themselves, and some are plain stubborn, refused to let the facts get into them. For some, they have low self-esteem, does not know they can sing well till they enters.When they entered the auditorium and sung their hearts out. Judges kicked them out, and no one admires their courage. What they have gotten are a bunch of discouraging laughters and jeerings. Well, some of them i agree odd to be kicked off because even the judges told them they were bad, their confidence was immeasurable that they created a scene. Unable to let the truth sinks in. Well, i guess, i do pity them a bit. Because people around them did not tell them how to improve themselves. Competition is cruel. Singing is a pastime. And yet it has to be put on a balance and make comparison. So what if you sung badly, singing is for enjoyment, doesnt it? sigh.

For those who made it, i pity them also. Because even if they prove themselves worthy, yet again they are being judged. They have to meet to that ideal expectations. Even if they met that expectations, still they have to go. This is competition.

Sad and cruel.

WHAT’S MORE CRUEL is that… companies made used of fans to earn profits. Sigh.

woah http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2006/08/woah/ http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2006/08/woah/#comments Sun, 27 Aug 2006 15:07:41 +0000 dawn-hazelnuts http://dawn-hazelnuts.blog.friendster.com/2006/08/woah/ For those who watched the national day rally, you should know that our prime minister, Lee Hsien Loong actually READS our blogs… Thats scary.. because we have no more channels to frustrate our anger. Still I understand that, mosts of the blogs "public"ised, therefore.. racism remarks are of course not to be presented. I really wonder.. does HE really really really READS our blogs?! and.. sooooooooooo many people have blogs and worse, have numbers of blog accounts.. how did he managed to READ them ALL?

Speaking of the national rally.. has anyone heard of mrbrown.com? My brother invited me to his room, and let me listen to the recent broadcast.. It’s sooooooooooooooo hilarious !!!! An extraction from the rally. Those who are interested.. get it from me.. haha

Ever since i enrolled into this school, i’ve changed a lot. In what sense? My behavior, perhaps? Haha, the girl who used to be very quiet in school, has had " morphed " to a much sociable person. I remember, back in secondary school, i dont usually talk. Seldom heard my voice in class.

Now, in Nafa, haha, people probably cant wait for me to shut my mouth. Haha..

Well, i like my classmates, i’m saying this not because of i have a couple of them in my friends’ list, but, is the truth alright ?! haha, small but close. (^.^) Unlike the class i used to be in, disorganised, but, they are all straight-forward people, thats what i like about them. I prefer a rather honest kind of class, tells you what they think of you, instead of at the back.

Prejudgemental caused communication break-down. Clarification ensures no misunderstandings. Do not wait till when you’re old, then realise you’ve misunderstood that person. Dont wait for that person to come to you. Dont assume. It might not be that way.

I guess having such a tight schedule, also a good thing.. Haha.. At least, it doesn’t make me think that much. Still, it doesnt stop me from beating myself emotionally. I feel horrible ~ thinking i’m still unworthy… to be in this family. I still cant shake off those criticisms. I love my family, i love my brother, and i’m proud to have him as my brother.. (*sob sob). Why must people always put us on a balance? comparing .. Why? It’s not fair. We are born to have different capabilities. Each of us are unique. Why? Why they have to put me on a balance with someone else and compare what we’ve been through? So what if the answer is, " you are more unfortunate than her? " Does it make us feel any better? Sigh.. It is so hard to bring this idea across to the older generation… Sigh.. Well, i’m trying not to take it personally. Still, it hurts.

i guess, maybe because i’ve always lend my ears to those in need, listen to their problems and provide them with solutions, make me differ from those in my age. Haha.. I still remember, i did this test.. A mental age test. It says my… mental age was 26.

Er.. ahahaha.. i keep on going off the subject.. ahahaha.. it’s s’pose to be about school.. ahahahha..

Ok, i’ll try to be constant next time.. haha

Cheers !!!

School Life Rulz ?

Since that day 5th of June’06, my life has changed drastically. I always take my " carefree " schoolife for granted. Always say " Why so many assignments?! " Actually it wasn’t a lot. Now that i’ve enrolled into this school, i then realise.. what is SO many assignments and projects.

I used to love teachers giving us projects back then. Now come to think of it, i was rather foolish. I thought i could show my capabilities through my project and it is something of my OWN, something which i can proudly announce it’s MINE. I set high expectations in whatever i do, especially projects. But, ever since i’ve came here, things changed. When i try to commit my principles for completing my project, i just couldnt do it. Having so many assignments at hand, i hardly can catch my breath. The only free time i ever have is on weekends. Still, my time is given to relaxation and completing of assignments. When the dateline of the project submission is drawing near.. i have to put my assignments aside and do my project. This is really tiring. Relaxation is necessary as it balances your lifestyle. Overworking your mind is unhealthy. Haha.

Well, coping is really tough, but i’m trying my very best to adjust. If i dont get " used to it " now, during the assessment period it’ll be a lot harder to cope, let alone when i’m at my 2nd year.

14 weeks - 14 lessons per lecturer. Which means you only see your lecturer 14 times !!!!

Well. therefore, they started to bombard you with mountains and mountains of assignments. >.<

Sigh.. >.<

STRESS man ~ >.<

Alright, i’ll continue again next time. In my next entry, i shall include more about my school life like, friendship, etc

Thank you for reading. See ya ~

Cheers !!!
